OverviewIntroduction

The Presenter HUB (VP S1) is a professional, hardware-based video processor, designed so that users can display and share content from an smartphone or tablet, as well as from multiple video and computer sources connected directly to the Presenter HUB. This model also has the ability to change settings, switch video sources, and annotate from remote computers, tablets, and smartphones.

This ManualThis manual provides instructions for configuring your Presenter HUB, using the built in system menu, creating annotations, providing video sources, and connecting and using physical controllers (such as a keyboard or mouse).

For instructions on using Remote Controllers, such as a smartphone or a web browser, please see the Remote Controllers section.

For instructions on configuring RS-232 devices to send commands to the Presenter HUB, follow the instructions in this manual for proper wiring and configuration. Once your RS-232 device is properly wired, please see the RS-232 (COMM Port) Pinout and Commands section, and reference the Programmer’s Guide. The Programmer’s Guide has a list of detailed commands that can be sent to the Presenter HUB.

Presentation SystemNo matter where your presentation is stored, it is easy to share your presentation with the group. Whether your presentation is stored on a PC or Mac, Android tablet or phone, iPad or iPhone, you can wirelessly stream the content to the Presenter HUB using Airplay, or Googlecast.

You can also use an HDMI cable to manually connect to the Presenter HUB. There is even a USB video input for a document camera.

The Presenter HUB offers many control options to create powerful presentations. Control options include an Apple app, an Android app, a browser interface, and a touch screen GUI from the Presenter HUB itself. It is also possible to control Presenter HUB with Crestron, or AMX type room control system. All of the Presenter HUB user interfaces have the same look and feel. Whether you are using your PC, iPhone or other device, using the Presenter HUB is intuitive and familiar. Choose whatever works best for you.

Save, Print, and Share ImagesThe Presenter HUB gives the user the ability to save, print, and share annotated images. An annotated image can be saved to a USB storage device, such as a flash drive. Users can also print annotated images to a printer. Images can be shared over a TCP/IP network through Windows Share.

AnnotationThe user has a variety of options for drawing lines and markers during a presentation. The Presenter HUB is compatible with most touch screens, keyboards and mouse devices. An smartphone or tablet can also be used for annotation.

Marking example over an image of a spreadsheet

Video is annotated using several simple-to-use graphics called markers. There are two types of markers: pointers (such as an arrow) and freehand drawing. Pointers and drawings may be used in combination to annotate. Markers are easily erased either one at a time until the screen is clear, or all at once.

When a keyboard is attached, text, a date/time stamp, and straight line drawing are available. With the various marker selections available, users can choose the best option to increase contrast over the image or video displayed in the monitor.

Users may also display a white background on the screen and use it like a whiteboard on which to “draw out” your point.

Features• Two marking tools.

º 2 pointers with 8 arrows of various angles, plus 2 dots and 2 cross hairs in a small or large size.

º Freehand draw in 7 solid line colors, 4 different line thicknesses (with or without drop shadows), plus 3 highlight colors.

• Four additional marking tools with keyboard connected.

º Straight line drawing mode allows underscoring, mapping or other wise drawing a straight line.

º Text can be typed on the video image in one of 6 different fonts, each available in one or more sizes. A text background may be added to further highlight the text on the video image.

º An active date/time label (sometimes called a date/time stamp) can be placed on the video image to time an event. This label is very useful for record keeping when saving or printing images because it is embedded in the image.

• The ability to position and anchor a combination of several markers and drawings on the screen at once.

• Easily save, print, and share annotated images.

• Options for clearing lines and pointers from an overlay all at once or one at a time, beginning with the most recently anchored marker.

• Ability to assign a unique marker color (up to 7) to each marking device and switch between colors during a presentation.

• 3 highlight colors can be used to create a see-through colored overlay, just like highlighters on paper.

• A drop shadow effect may be selected to further optimize the display of annotated lines over the background.

Presenter Hub

• Compatibility with HDMI equip ment.

• A solid white chalkboard can be selected for drawing when the video image is no longer needed.

• Sync generation allows the Presenter HUB to automatically select the sync if no live video is desired. In the event that sync from a poor video source is lost, the Presenter HUB will automatically switch to chalkboard mode if auto-chalkboard is enabled.

• Keyboard control provides a quick way to select many of the Menu System options without having to go to the Menu System. Instead, function keys provide choices for pointer type, background, marker colors, brightness levels, video source selection, and more.

• Brightness adjustment gives you the opportunity to set the brightness of the Presenter HUB markers to coincide with the brightness level of the video signal, so that the markers are displayed optimally for standard video or for professional broadcasting.

• AV programmable so that AV control systems can control the Presenter HUB using programmable commands.

• Two RS-232 ports allow the simultaneous use of two RS-232 communications devices, such as tablets or touchscreens.

• Five USB 3.0 ports allow the simultaneous use USB tablets, USB touch screens, or other USB control devices. The use of USB hubs increases the device limit to more USB control devices.

• Options available to multiple users to designate which RS-232 tablet or touchscreen takes pri ority over the other when both are drawing.

• Record the entire presentation as an MP4 to archive or replay.

• Easily switch between content, sources, and presentation materials.

• Annotate regions of interest to focus your audience’s attention.

• Display a whiteboard to further explain key or complex thoughts, then return to the presentation seamlessly.

• Shows 4K video, allowing for the most eye catching images and critical details to be clearly examined.

Detecting and Assigning DevicesDevices connected to any ports will often be autodetected by the Presenter HUB. However, sometimes these devices will need to be manually added or need additional configuration.

Serial Port SettingsSerial ports are used for connecting controller/marker devices and used for connecting to other systems. The Serial Port dialog also allows you to assign a priority system to control users if multiple controller/markers are connected.

Initialization of Controller/Marker Device TypesSerial ports are initialized when the Presenter HUB is powered on. During this process, the Presenter HUB attempts to determine what device type is connected to each port. This procedure can be lengthy since the Presenter HUB accommodates a wide range of devices, and in its default autodetect mode, it will run through the entire list of possibilities for each port.

20

Presenter Hub

NOTE: The Presenter HUB can only automatically detect controller/marker device types; other devices will need to be set up manually.

It is possible to limit the initialization process for a designated port by permanently assigning the device type. The Presenter HUB will look for only the permanently assigned device type. This speeds up the initialization process considerably. The next time the Presenter HUB is powered up, the autodetect procedure will skip the permanently assigned port. If the assigned device needs to be ini tialized at startup, it will be initialized according to the device type listed.

Viewing a Serial Device Type1. Activate the menu system. The Main Menu appears.

2. Select Devices. The Devices menu appears.

3. Select Serial Ports. The Serial Ports menu appears.

NOTE: All the serial ports installed on your Presenter HUB are listed by port number, with the device type displayed to the right of each num ber. If the device type is in blue, it has been assigned through the autodetect procedure at startup.

Calibrating and Configuring Touch ScreensCalibrating Presenter HUB Touch Screen Controllers

Touch screens need to be calibrated on their first installation. Calibration ensures an intuitive and precise feel to drawing.

Calibrations are automatically saved for each video port. If you have a touch screen display with multiple video inputs, you should calibrate the touch screen for each input.

If you move a touch screen to a different port, run the calibration again.

All calibrations are stored in battery backed-up memory. The most recent cali bration will be recalled any time power is cycled off and on.

Using MarkersOverview

The Presenter HUB features a variety of graphics, called markers, which you place over a video image to draw attention to or explain details of the image. The markers available include freehand drawing and a variety of pointers. With the keyboard installed, you can type text, draw straight lines, and anchor a date/time label. You can place any combination of these markers on the screen, in any combination of available colors. Such a combination of markers is called a marker overlay. With the keyboard installed, you can save and retrieve up to 25 different marker overlays.

This section covers marking procedures to follow while making a pre sentation. It is assumed that you have made set-up selections sometime before your presentation.

Assigning Marker ColorsThe color that the active marker displays is the color that the marker will be anchored in. You can anchor markers of different colors on a single overlay.

The colors available during a presentation are based on those activated in the Color Palette menu.

If the color of the markers does not change from black, the brightness level is too low and must be increased before selecting the color.

From Any ControllerActivate the Change Color command from your control device.

All markers anchored from this point on will appear in the newly selected color.

NOTE: If the pointer has been disengaged, and the Display Color Change option in the Color Palette Menu has been activated, a small block of color will briefly appear in the lower right of the screen to help you identify the new marker color.

Assigning Line StylesYou can change line style directly from the key board. You can also change the line style from other devices by accessing the menu system. When the keyboard is installed, you can only access the menu system from the keyboard.

When a line style is selected from a marking device, the Presenter HUB keeps track of the style and the device. The device will draw with that style until a different style is selected. This allows each marking device to have its own line style. You can have drawn lines of different styles on a single overlay. Once you draw the line, or anchor a straight line, you cannot change that line style. How ever, you can erase or undo the drawing and begin again.

From the Keyboard

1. Activate the Line Style command. A small sample of the active line style will appear briefly in the lower-right hand corner of the screen.

2. Repeatedly activate the Line Style command until the desired line style appears in the on screen sample. You can scroll backwards through the line options, by activating the Reverse Toggle command.

3. All lines drawn from this point on will appear in the newly selected line width and style.

1. Tap the pencil icon.

2. A bar will open at the top of the screen. You may select line thickness and color from here.


Entering the Marking ModeThe Presenter HUB is in the marking mode by default. The only time it is not in marking mode is when a menu is displayed. In the Marking mode, the image from the video source is displayed along with any stored markers. An active pointer is also displayed, unless it was disabled during setup.

DrawingYou can draw on the Presenter HUB’s overlay simply by beginning to draw. The drawing feature allows you to circle important parts of the image, write on the image, or underscore particular parts of text. You can draw freehand curves or straight lines.

To draw, you can use your finger on a touch screen. You can also use other mouse devices to draw. You cannot freehand draw using the keyboard, but you can use it for straight line drawing.

Before drawing, you may change the drawing line color or the width and style of the drawing line.

Drawing Freehand1. Position the active pointer (if one is displayed) anywhere on the video image where the drawing is to begin.

2. Activate the Draw command from your particular drawing device.

3. Reposition the active marker (if one is displayed) and repeat the above procedures for another drawn line.

Straight Line Drawing

NOTE: This feature works only using the keyboard.

1. Activate the Straight Draw command from the keyboard. A cursor appears representing the first endpoint of the straight line.

41

Presenter Hub

2. Position the cursor anywhere on the screen where the line is to begin, and anchor it. A second cursor appears, joined by a line to the first endpoint.

3. Position the second cursor where the line is to end and anchor it. The line segment is complete.

4. If desired, draw another straight line by positioning the new active cursor and anchoring it.

Selecting PointersYou select a pointer type while the pointer is active, or positionable. After you anchor the pointer, you cannot change that pointer’s type. However, you can erase or undo the anchored pointer and begin again.

From the KeyboardRepeatedly activate the Pointers command until the desired pointer type appears on screen. You can scroll backwards through the pointer options, by activating the Reverse Toggle command. The pointer you selected appears on screen, ready for positioning.

From Any Controller

1. Position the pointer anywhere on the video image to direct attention to an image detail.

2. If desired, reposition the same active pointer anywhere on the image to make your second point, and continue as often as desired.

3. If desired, anchor the active pointer. A new active pointer appear on screen, identical to the first.

NOTE: Active pointers are not displayed for touch screens, only anchored markers.

4. Repeat any of these steps as often as desired.

Turning the Active Pointer On/OffSometimes a presenter chooses not to have the pointer showing during a pre sentation. This command allows you to turn the visibility of the pointer off or on. When the active pointer is turned off, you can still anchor pointers.

NOTE: Since touch screens and whiteboards do not display active pointers, you do not need to use the Pointer On/Off command with those devices.

From the KeyboardActivate the Pointer On/Off command. The pointer disappears.

To make the pointer reappear, repeat the procedure.

NOTE: To turn off all active markers, use the keyboard Active Marker On/Off command.

From the Menu SystemPointers are turned off in the same dialog where they are selected.

Typing Text LabelsAnytime you press an alphanumeric key on the keyboard, a text label begins. Before you anchor a line of text, you can choose to display it in one of six fonts, each of which offers various sizes. These fonts are: TI Roman (4 sizes); Helvetica (4 sizes); TI Dom Casual (4 sizes); Fargo (3 sizes); Symbol (1 size); and Map (1 size). The Symbol and Map fonts are documented in the Appendices.

1. Position the active marker anywhere on the image.

2. Create a line of text by pressing the desired text keys.

NOTE: Do not anchor this line of text yet, since only an active line of text will display the font options.

3. Select the desired font by repeatedly activating the Fonts command until the font appears on screen. You can scroll backwards through the font options, by activating the Reverse Toggle command.

4. Select a font size by repeatedly activating the Font Size command until the correct size appears on screen. You can scroll backwards through the size options, by activating the Reverse Toggle command.

Saving and Storing Images and VideoOverview

The Presenter HUB makes it easy to access annotated or captured images, giving you newfound flexibility in the cre ation and sharing of your presentations.

It is now easy to capture images, with or without annotations, by either saving or printing them. Previously saved images can be retrieved from the storage device at will. You can also retrieve an image created on computer, as long as it conforms to the file specifications.

Capture OptionsA captured frame or field can be saved as an image to a USB memory device, to a computer running TFTP, or an SMB share. Files are saved in the bitmap format, 24 bit true color, with the extension .bmp. The captured frame will be the size of the screen resolution.

The File Defaults menu selection allows you to set the default settings for how the images are saved. It includes the directory, name and sequence numbering. This allows for fast saving with no dialog boxes involved.


2. Select Capture. The Capture menu appears.

Capture menu

Presenter Hub

3. Select Image or Video Defaults. The selected menu appears.

Image File menu and Video File menu

4. In the Dir field, enter the directory name where you wish to save the file. It must be 8 alphanumeric characters or less, no spaces and no subdi rectories. A default is entered automatically.

5. In the Prefix field, enter whatever letters you want each filename to begin with. The prefix must be 5 alphanumeric characters or less, no spaces. The default is entered automatically.

6. In the Index field, enter the number to start numbering from. Each time an image is saved, the number will increment. The default is 1. The num bering is remembered by the Presenter HUB, even through cycling of power.

An example filename is img1.bmp. The next images would be img2.bmp, img3.bmp, and so on.

7. Exit by selecting the Previous Menu button.


Freezing VideoIf video files are being shown as part of a presentation, the Presenter HUB can freeze it at any point so you can draw attention to a particular frame’s contents.

1. Activate the Freeze command in one of the following ways:

• Touch screen: Touch the Top-Right command area.

• Keyboard: Type ALT+F1.

The current video frame will be frozen on the screen. This command does not actually stop the video from playing. You will need to activate the Pause or Stop button on your video playback unit to do that.

2. You can now annotate the frozen image.

3. You can Save or Print the image at any time.

4. Activate the Freeze command again to toggle the command off. The running video will be displayed again.

Setting the Destination for Saved FilesAfter setting up the file defaults for saving images, you will want to select the destination for your saved files. Files can be saved to USB memory devices, a computer running TFTP, or an SMB share.



47

Presenter Hub

3. Select the Destination as USB, TFTP or SMB. The Presenter HUB will use your selection whenever you activate the Save command from the touch screen, or keyboard.


Setting the Verify OptionIn circumstances where it is important to know that a file has been successfully saved or printed, this setting allows you to verify the end result. If you turn Verify on, a dialog will appear after each save or print command, asking you to verify that the image was successfully saved or printed.



3. Set Verify On or Off.


Saving ImagesThe Presenter HUB can save displayed images in the following ways:

• moving images can first be frozen and then saved.

• a single frame of a moving image can be captured “on-the-fly” as it goes by on the screen.

• any still image can be saved.

The image can be saved to a USB memory device or to another computer using TFTP or SMB (Windows Share).

The image is saved based on the settings you’ve chosen. Files are saved in bitmap format, 24 bit true color with the extension .bmp. The captured frame will be the size of the screen resolution.

The USB memory device must be a single device, like a memory stick. It cannot be connected through a multiple port memory card reader. It must also be format ted as FAT16 or FAT 32.

To save an image file to a USB device1. Save the image file in one of the following ways:

• Touch Screen: Touch the Image Save command area (center-left).

NOTE: Be sure the Capture File Defaults has been set to USB. If you want to use the tablet or touch screen commands, be sure to set the Destination to USB first.

GlossaryACTIVE MARKER

-- the pointer, text label or date/time label which is positionable. Often used as a marker, but also used to position the starting point of a drawing line. When the active marker is anchored, another identical active marker appears on-screen. One active marker is always displayed, unless the marker has been turned off.

ANCHORED MARKER-- the opposite of an active marker. An anchored marker has been placed in a fixed position on the Presenter HUB overlay and cannot be moved again. How ever, anchored markers may be erased or cleared.

BACKGROUND-- text background refers to the area immediately surrounding a line of text or a text label. For video background, see Chalkboard.

BLOOM-- markers or text which enlarge or blur on the monitor due to excessive brightness.

BUTTON, TABLET-- the square or rectangular zone on the tablet Menu Strip that represents a Presenter HUB function. When this zone is clicked on with the pen tip, that func tion is engaged.

CHALKBOARD-- the solid area behind the Presenter HUB markers when in the Chalkboard mode. Presenters may choose a source background or a solid background.

CLEAR-- removing all the overlay of all markers at once. A single active marker will remain on-screen unless the marker has been disabled.

CLICK-- quickly depressing and releasing a button on the Presenter HUB auxiliary controller, as opposed to a press of the button.

COLOR PALETTE-- a user-defined group of colors which may be attributed to each active marker before anchored. From 1 to 7 colors are available.

56

Presenter Hub

COMM PORT-- a serial port used for communications. Serial devices that connect to these ports (such as a mouse or touch screen), send and receive data in single bits of information one after the other, thus the term serial.

CONNECTOR-- hardware installed on cable ends to provide cable attachment to an input or output device. Input and output device ports which mate with this hardware are also called connectors.

CONTROLLER-- a device that controls the selection, positioning, anchoring and clearing of markers on the Presenter HUB overlay. Some other compatible controllers are most touch screens and certain mouse devices.

DRAW-- freehand drawing or writing over a video or computer image.

DROP SHADOW-- a shadow on drawing lines, or straight lines for the purpose of creating a line that stands out from the video image. Most colors have a black drop shadow. Black has no drop shadow.

ERASE -- remove markers from the overlay, rather than undo them using an on screen eraser. Erasing has the same effect as erasing with a pencil or chalkboard eraser; only the markers you touch (or parts of them) will erase.

FONT-- a particular style of text such as Helvetica or Times Roman. The fonts installed in the Presenter HUB are available in one or more sizes.

ICON/BUTTON, TABLET-- see button, tablet.

MARKERS-- pointers (arrows, cross hairs, dots), date/time labels, freehand draw ings and straight lines which can be placed and anchored on a marker overlay.

OVERLAY-- a combination of one or more markers placed on the screen using the capa bilities of the Presenter HUB. These markers overlay a chosen video image. While the markers are visible, the actual overlay is invisible, allowing you to mark directly on top of a video image (or solid background if selected in the menu system).

POINTERS-- the different arrows, cross hairs and dot pointers which may be selected and placed on a overlay, in any number and in combina tion with other markers. Pointers are considered markers. However, not all markers are pointers.

PRESS-- on the keyboard, the action of pressing then releasing the function key. On auxiliary controllers, a press is often the action of depressing and not releasing a button until the desired effect takes place on the screen (as opposed to a click of the button).

PROXIMITY-- on a tablet, when proximity is activated, the active pointer automatically disappears each time the pen is lifted from the drawing area.

UNDO-- remove anchored markers on an overlay one at a time, beginning with the most recently anchored marker.

VIDEO SOURCE-- a device from which the Presenter HUB receives a video image, incorporates the graphic overlay capabilities, then outputs to the corresponding display. Examples of video sources include DVD players, cameras, VGA computers, standard television sets, teleconference equipment, slide-to-video converters, visual presenters and more. The source can be from HDMI or USB.
